Naval Aircrewman (Helicopter) 3rd Class Kyle Daggett, of Milford, is assigned to Helicopter Sea Combat Squadron 23, the Wildcards. In this photo taken last week, Daggett "safety observes" aboard an MH-60S Seahawk helicopter as it transports cargo to the amphibious assault ship USS Makin Island during a "connected and vertical replenishment" at sea, with fleet replenishment oiler USNS Henry J. Kaiser and amphibious dock landing ship USS Comstock. Makin Island is on a scheduled deployment to promote peace and freedom of the seas by providing deterrence, humanitarian aid and disaster response while supporting the Navy's maritime strategy in the U.S. 7th and 5th Fleet areas of responsibility.
